Police said a man who may have been on PCP was attacking two pitbulls outside the woman’s back yard. . . .
The woman, who is said to be in her 40’s, came to the back yard and asked the suspect to leave. Police said he then came at the couple and pushed the elderly man to the ground.
The woman fired two warning shots into the air before shooting the man in the thigh.
“It sounds like the occupants life was legitimately in danger,” said Det. Jack Smith from the Bakersfield Police Department. “They didn't know who he was he seemed to be under the influence of some sort of drug.” . . .
Investigators said the wound is not life threatening and no charges will be filed against the woman.
